Here's the Narrative for Democrats in the 2022 Midterm Election Cycle
https://signalpress.blogspot.com/2022/05/gifts-for-mid-terms-from-gop-to.htmlWe aren't politicizing the deaths of those in Buffalo, California and Uvalde who were doing something they though was safe when they were murdered. We are defending their families, standing up for them, and making sure that they did not die in vain.
The only way things will change is for people to get involved and while it may seem that voting is futile, the fact of the matter is that there is strength and power in unity and using the ballot box does bring change. The Latino population in Texas is now at 42%, equal to the non-hispanic white population. But their voice in government, including elected officials of both parties, is less than a third of that percentage. They're not "immigrants." Most of the Latino population of Texas, especially in the southern third of the state, are native born, and their ancestors were there several generations before the first white American settlers arrived.
This isn't "politicizing" these shootings. Far from it, the right had already politicized the issue by their failure to enact reasonable, constitutional laws that would have prevented these shootings and those who were murdered where they thought they were safe would still be alive. The Democrats are the only ones with the plans and proposals that will put a stop to this insanity. I'd much rather be accused of politicizing the event than to have to face yet another day grieving over a classroom full of dead children because I didn't do what I could. And voting for Democrats committed to gun control is the least that I can do

Nothing of real value to the issues facing this country.
I mean, we have a Dem in the White House, and we have Dem majorities in both Houses of Congress.
The problems are - without a doubt - overwhelmingly the result of Chump/Repukes' mismanagement and lack of stewardship. But they're never going to admit it, are they? They're going to get their base up in anger over how we've messed up, just like always. History isn't one of their strong points and the media rarely helps us with this. By that I mean, the media never challenges the Repukes' lies by telling them just exactly where and how they're wrong.
It's not going to be easy getting Repukes to do some soul-searching on gunz, women's rights, minority rights/safety, rebuilding the infrastructure, and other important issues when all they have to do is bitch about the price of gasoline.
Thank you!
I've often wondered if Kyrsten Sinema was really a Trojan Horse. If so, then she deliberately misrepresented herself in order to throw the Dem Caucus into disarray. I find it hard to believe because our party is normally diligent in their efforts to vett our candidates. Sinema was actually way more progressive before she was elected to Congress, but then she slowly moved to the center politically. Since 2018 she has moved steadily rightward after being elected to the Senate. (Much to the dismay of Democratic voters everywhere.)
I believe the Dems could do something similar and get a Trojan Horse elected as GOP Senator, because the Repukes seem to be quite irresponsible in their vetting process. If Chump thinks somebody would look good on TV - poof! they're a candidate. It's almost that easy, just ask Herschel Walker or Dr. Oz.
